Is consummation of marriage mandatory for Walima?

QUESTION:

Some families have one wedding function but before the actual consummation of marriage, where the bride and bride groom family contribute. Is this a replacement of the valima? Can the party given on the day of the Nikah by the groom be considered as a valima but before actual consummation of marriage?
